The legal regulation on animal rights has come to an end. According to the draft AK Party is working on, animals that are seen as ‘goods’ in the Turkish Penal Code will now be defined as ‘life’. Thus, the ill-treatment and torture of animals will be deemed to have been done to the soul.

According to the news, the penalties will be re-determined and increased. ‘Preliminary complaints offices’ will be established under the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry for the ill-treatment of animals.

Citizens will be able to complain to the offices that will serve within the provincial directorates of agriculture. According to the decision to be made here, it will be clear whether a judicial investigation will be opened against those who torture and ill-treat animals.
